EVen though I had gotten monies out to 4 or 5 people for cards,
today was not my day ,i had to put my dog to sleep, my Big-Rae.

I was distraught ,disfunctional and just out there all day. She
was 15 yrs old and my pal. While she had hip problems for some-time ,i had to hold on as my other dog (Snoop -Yodi)passed 2 mos ago, unexpectedly. These 2 dogs were a litter apart....Yodi
being the younger ,I had for 14yrs.

2 days ago ,she had Prime-rib, yesterday lots of chicken and a
nice Turkey meal today w/redskins. It sure is hard to take a
family part of you down. The emptiness ,the final look into their eyes ,knowing it's over. I didnt like today.

If I could find a way, I would like to be happy like dogs are
all the time. No matter what, their tails are always wagging. I
would like my tail to wag like that. DOgs act everyday ,like we
seem to act only at Christmas time. It is good to be joyous
more often.

Doggone dogs ,them !
